Thread regarding Allstate Corp. layoffs

Should I apply for an adjuster position with all the layoffs that happened?

I'm well qualified for the job, and am looking to get out of my position at another company right now.

When I mentioned Allstate to a coworkers, he reminded that was the company that had all those layoffs. Now I'm not sure I want to bite. Also, is it as heavy workload (inside liability adjuster, auto PD only) as glassdoor is suggesting it is?

Thanks

I was an inside adjuster at the Indianapolis office. I enjoyed my fellow employees the most and the office did have fun activities for employees during the month. The work load was heavy but everyone in the office was busy. We all seemed to embrace the s— together.

I can't speak for others but I always would always say how wonderful it was at survey time. It made my boss happy, who I liked and limited the chances of any follow up meeting. Nothing changed or came out of the surveys anyway. So the 85 % stat, like all the other company metrics, is probably clear as mud based on c-ap.

Sure we are mortgage slaves but company s---s and pat freezes increased work load : what I recommend to newcomers is come aboard, get trained sat sub market and treated like $£!> then jump ship like i see happening repeatedly in business units. Allstate -- we train the industry!

P.s, you mgt dumb--ses who hang out here (again ... Why? Aren't you fully transparent on upper echelon workings?) wake UP and release all your computer updates mean %#%* because you don't ask for input of producers and cost containers. Home office for Allstate is worse than any ivory tower academia holdout is total corpo B S.

Uh oh, managers will pile on! Because in a mature fortune 100 company managers troll employee chat boards Ahahahahahah so sad. LUSERS!

What department does the “I talk to Allstate employees every day” poster interact with ? I’m curious, given the lack of information. I also think it’s BS (a competitor recruiter ?) but it could also be a vendor in California, where we’ve announced our intention to move the claim jogs out of state. I would expect those employees to be disgruntled.

That’s interesting, because we conduct internal surveys several times a year, across the Claim organization, and over 85% respond that they’d still be working at Allstate a year from now, given the choice.

That’s a fact. A data point. You’re full of sh*t.

In

My current position I talk to Allstate employees on a regular basis; 95% hate their jobs. Run like your hair is on fire!

California is one of 14 Claim Service Areas. The individual making the inquiry was probably not in California. As far as “treating it’s employees like c-ap”, Allstate’s employee retention rate is one of the highest in the industry, and you should t all to a current Allstate employee that’s worked somewhere else.

Usually comments like this come from an employee (or ex-employee), that’s has had performance problems.

Allstate Clims are leaving California. They are moving to Arizona. Plus they treat their employees like c-ap.

Yes, the workload is as heavy as described, if not more so. You're scored on customer service and the scores are on your PDS-your performance evaluation. Everything in claims is driven by metrics, to the smallest detail and daily, weekly etc. If I were you and have a position somewhere else I would not change companies.

Company goes through major restructuring. We are moving jobs across multiple geo regions. It impacts all business units. A lot of automation is introduced.
